Large Scale Simulation of Parallel Molecular Dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper aims to describe the implementation of TAKAKAW, an efficient parallel application for the simulation of molecular dynamics designed to handle large proteins in biology. The implementation is based on the multi-threading parallel programming environment, called ATHAPASCAN 1 which allows to implement and evaluate easily several load-balancing strategies. Some experiments run on one of the largest molecule ever simulated (an hydrated -galactosidase with 413039 atoms) show the interest of such a parallel programming environment. keywords.

Influences of Small-Scale Effect and Boundary Conditions on the Free Vibration of Nano-Plates: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation
This paper addresses the influence of boundary conditions and small-scale effect on the free vibration of nano-plates using molecular dynamics (MD) and nonlocal elasticity theory. Based on the MD simulations, Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) is used to obtain fundamental frequencies of single layered graphene sheets (SLGSs) which modeled in this paper as the mo...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics studies on the denaturation of polyalanine in the presence of guanidinium chloride at low concentration
Molecular dynamic simulation is a powerful method that monitors all variations in the atomic level in explicit solvent. By this method we can calculate many chemical and biochemical properties of large scale biological systems. In this work all-atom molecular dynamics simulation of polyalanine (PA) was investigated in the presence of 0.224, 0.448, 0.673, 0.897 and 1.122 M of guanidinium chlorid...

متن کاملMixed Large-Eddy Simulation Model for Turbulent Flows across Tube Bundles Using Parallel Coupled Multiblock NS Solver
In this study, turbulent flow around a tube bundle in non-orthogonal grid is simulated using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique and parallelization of fully coupled Navier – Stokes (NS) equations. To model the small eddies, the Smagorinsky and a mixed model was used. This model represents the effect of dissipation and the grid-scale and subgrid-scale interactions. The fully coupled NS eq...
